Colored society in MARYLAND,

Colored society has rules as strict as
the laws of the Modes and Persians. 1t
is full Of circles, and each succeeding
circle holds itself proudly above the one
just below it. A colored aristocrat is
one of the most perfect pictures Of con-
scicus exclusiveness that the world has
ever known. These aristocrats COPY the
white folks closely, and readily adopt
any new kink that fashion furnishes.
Their social entertainments are really
very expensive affairs. and the dressing
is on a scale Of magnificence, with a
plenitude of color and an amplitude Of
corsage bouquets that the queen Of Sheba
might envy. The youths try TO rival one
another in the size Of boutonnieres and
expanse Of shirt bosom, while the maid
ems affect white satin slippers and swans
down fans. The society events" are
always described at length in the weekly
papers published by the colored men for
the colored people. These accounts are
noted for their thorough originality and
big adjectiyes. Baltimore Cor. New York

Daily Yellowstone journal., 1887-10-22

Scientific journals continue TO explore
from time TO time for a universal reason
for bald heads. and a writer in one of
them has lately declared that men are
bald only because they wear stiff and
close fitting hats which compress the blood
vessels Of the scalp and prevent proper
nourishment Of the hair roots. Ii is a
theory marked by the weakness which
distinguishes the bulk of generalizations.
The prophet whom the boys Knocked was
before stiff hats were in vogue, and men
are bald in quarters Of the world which
the hat of civilization has never invaded,
Doubtless some men are made bald by
their hats. but all badness Is no more to
be charged TO them than IL is 10 be
charged TO the North American Indians.

CHAPTER ".

Kate found her sister, as the stranger had
intimated, fully prepared. A hasty inven-
tory Of provisions and means of subsistence
showed that they had ample resources for q
much longer isolation.
"T+hey tell me it is by no means an uncom-
mon case, Kate; somebody over at some
body's place was showed in for four weeks,
and now it appears that even the Summit
house is not always accessible. John ought
to have known it when he bought the place;
in fact, was ashamed to admit that he did
not. But that is like John to prefer his own
theories to the experience of others. How
ever, don't suppose we should even notice
the privation except for the mails 1t will
be a lesson to John, though. AS Mr.. Lee
says, he is on the outside, and can probably
go wherever he likes from the Summit ex-
cept to come here"
"Mr. Lee?" echoed Kate.
Eyes, the wounded one; and the others
name is Faliner. l asked them in order that
you might be properly introduced. There
were very respectable Falkners in Charles
town, you remember; l thought you might
nection now that you are such good friends
It's providential they are here, as we haven't
got horse or a man in the place since Man
uel disappeared, though Mr.. Falkner says he
can't be far away, Or they would have met
him on the trail if he had gone toward the
summit"
"Did they say anything more of Manuel3"
"Nothing; though 1 am inclined to agree
with you that he isn't trustworthy. But that
again is the result of Johns idea of employ
ing native skill at the expense of retaining
native habits"
The evening closed early, and with no
diminution iii the falling rain and RISING
wind. Falzner kept his word, and unosten-
tatiously performed the outdoor work in the
barn and stables, assisted by the only Chi
nese servant remaining, and under the ad
vice and supervision of Kate. Although he
seemed to understand Horses, she was sur
prised to find that he betrayed civic ignor-
ance of the ordinary details Of the farm and
rustic household. 1t was quite impossible

RUSSELL SAGE'S NEW CLOCK.

How 1t Came to Be Left in His Office,
and Other Paragraphs of Interest.
A brand new clock stands ON the top of
Russell Sages desk in Russell Sage's office in
the Manhattan building, at Broadway and
Rector street. 1t is one of those handsome
French affairs, fooled with gold lines, and
bears up into prominence bronze figure,
which in this particular case is reproduc-
ton of the Statue of Liberty. Now if there
is one thing MIR. Sage does not need in his
office it is clock. As he sits at his work he
can look straight out of the window and find
the clock of Old Trinity looking right at him,
although, of course, the hands of the clock
partially cover the face. But it looks down
and tells the time with silent eloquence
And know that Mr.. Sage consults it, SO |
mentioned the fact of the new clock with a
little surprise.
"Oh, it was left here" said Mr.. Sage with
a smile. "a chap down on the street insisted
on leaving it."

him to have the brokers send the stock to my

was not until Mrs. Scott rose with warn

A Bath In the Morning.

In your dressing-room you have soft
cold water and sponge, probably placed
there over night, SO that it is in the
morning of the same temperature as the
air; then you have a nice, soft Turkish
washing glove and piece of plain Cas-
tile or ivory soap-not scented; that
were dangerous to health; then standing
before basin of hot water the whole
body is quickly lathered and rubbed
| thoroughly. This ought not to occupy
more than say three minutes, and after
this comes the cold sponge bath, which
need not take more than minute and
half. A moderately coarse towel
should be used, and the skin should be
thoroughly dried. Remember that the
towel must not be rough enough to irri-
tate the skin, but only to produce
pleasant glow; remember, too, that there
must oe no dawdling over the bath
dawdle as much as you please while
dressing, but bathe with judicious celer-
ity; and remember, thirdly, that you
must never neglect to wet the head with
cold water, else disagreeable sensations
will be the result.
The bath is to be taken on an empty
stomach, and Immediately after getting
out of bed. The slight shock caused by the
cold water will be succeeded by feelings
very delightful, indeed, feelings which 1
might describe if chose, but will not,
as l want you to experience them.
There are sponge baths and plunge baths
and shower baths, all of which may be

household bathing commend me to the

Manning Logan has secured the agency fol
a company whose business it is to insure the
lives of horses, and is doing pretty well with
it. There is good deal Of fine stock in
Washington, but the man who has the most
and the best never insures. This is Senator
Stanford. He does not even insure his
houses, and hasn't such a thing as an insur-
ance policy among all his papers He says
that he would patronize a company that
would agree to replace what is lost or de-
stroyed, but he does not want money guaran-
tees Everything he has is of more value to
him than to any one else, and if money can
replace what he loses, he has it. If a lost
article cannot be replaced he wants no one to
compensate him for its loss.

glanced upward and saw the lion scowling
down at him. With a yelp of terror he
lodged across the sidewalk Then he stopped
a moment, glanced over his shoulder, as if to
assure himself that what he saw was not an
apparition conjured up by disordered dog
intellect, became satisfied that the lion was
really there, and then ran bowling down the

Moltke was unable to obtain-the keys of the
fortress of Metz. They were concealed at
the time of the surrender and have now been
purchased of a refugee from Metz, who had

covered from his chagrin at not finding the
keys-Boston Transcript.
